@republik_magazin Ive read the article, and I saw nothing defamatory. I’m sorry they’re coming after you, Thiel makes a hobby of destroying publications that don’t bow down. I don’t know Swiss law, but I’m sure it’s more rational than our oligarchical worship center, and I wish you the best of luck.

@MissConstrue @republik_magazin It's a SLAPP suit intended to cost RM so much money they go bankrupt

RM will get the money back when the case is thrown out but by then they'll be out of business

It makes me so angry that SLAPP suits are not immediately tossed and the filer fined an punishing amount of capital.
